“That’s good. Mother had been worried that they would be too lonely after suddenly separating from their parents. Fortunately, they are strong and sensible children and there is no big problem.” As Madam Qiao said this, a gratified look appeared in the depths of her eyes.

“Mother is right. Mother, I sent them away because father sent someone to send a reply,” Zhan liuye said.

“Oh? Did your father see Xue ‘er?” Madam Qiao asked with eyes full of expectation.

Ever since Madam Qiao found out why Gu Qingxue wanted to go to the

Southern Border, she could not feel at ease. She sent a letter to Imperial Duke Zhan that very night, informing him to find Gu Qingxue at the border and to protect their goddaughter’s life at all costs.

“According to father, he hasn’t met up with Qingxue yet. However, that’s not the main point. The main point is that father is very opposed to Qingxue going to the border, and he’s even been furious in his letter because of this.’ Thinking back to Imperial Duke Zhan’s intense tone in his letter, Zhan liuye shook his head helplessly.

His father had always doted on his mother and little sister the most. No matter how angry he was, he could not bear to hurt them.

Since that was the case, Zhan Liuye naturally became the punching bag.

In the letter, he was almost sprayed with dog blood by his father. It was as if he was being scolded while being strangled. His father repeatedly emphasized in the letter that if such a thing happened in the future, he must stop it.

As someone who only found out the truth at the end and had been kept in the dark the entire time, he did feel very sad and helpless.

However, he had no choice. Who asked him to be the one with the least status in the family?

When Zhan Liuye thought of this, he did not feel any burden. Instead, his face was filled with happiness.

Madam Qiao’s interest was piqued by Zhan Liuye’s words, and seeing that he didn’t say anything, she hurriedly asked, “Child, why did you stop halfway through your words? What did your father say?”

“Father naturally instructed me in the letter to take good care of mother. Mother, you also know that the person my father is most worried about when he’s out is you,” Zhan Liuye said with a serious expression.

Madam Qiao’s eyebrows and eyes filled with a smile that could not be hidden, and her face pretended to be calm: “We’re already an old couple, what’s there to be worried about? I’m the one who’s worried about him. You also know that your father is getting on in years.”

Imperial Duke Zhan had very few children. No matter how much the couple loved each other, they only had one child. In addition, Zhan Liuye’s body had been weak since he was young and could not practice martial arts. Imperial Duke Zhan could not be considered to have a successor either, so he could only rely on himself to hold on.

However, how many years could Imperial Duke Zhan last at his age?n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“It’s all my fault for not being able to practice martial arts. I’ve failed to live up to father and mother’s hopes.” When this matter was brought up, Zhan Liuye was not just worried, but he also felt a strong sense of guilt.

As the only son of Imperial Duke Zhan, he was unable to inherit his father’s legacy. He was the only one who knew the pain and pressure of this.

“Mother is not blaming you for telling you this. Mother knows that there are no geniuses in this world to speak of. It’s not hard to imagine the hardships and pain behind you being able to get to your current status.” Looking at her son, Madam Qiao’s heart ached more and more.

“It’s a good thing that we have hope now. I’ve asked Yue Shan, and he said that Dumby is a rare martial arts genius. If Dumby starts learning now, he’ll definitely have great achievements in the future when he grows up.” At the mention of this matter, Zhan Liuye’s eyes were filled with relief..
